Crostini

My favorite thing to order for appetizer is Crostini and Bruschetta (P295). Farfalla offers a list of toppings from which you can choose a maximum of four to have with your bread. I’ve tried Anchovy and Tomato, Smoked Salmon and Goat Cheese, Cream Cheese and Spinach, Olive Tapenade, and Parma Ham and Cheese. I loved the Olive Tapenade and the Cream Cheese and Spinach, but my favorite is the Anchovy and Tomato. The saltiness of the anchovy contrast well with the fresh, sour taste of the tomatoes.

If you’re craving for fast dimsum or simple comfort Chinese food, there’s only one place to go to here in Davao City, Dimsum Diner. Not actually one place as there are dozens of branches in Davao City alone, but it’s definitely where people go to for dimsum.

When my friends and I are craving for a fast Chinese meal, we go to Dimsum Diner for some of their Bulad Rice, Salt and Pepper Riblets, and some dimsum. Their Siomai Supreme coupled with Humba Rice or plain steamed rice is a runaway winner to stave off your hunger any time of the day.
